Description
Initially a small mill with millstones fed by the river, the mill passed from father to son, Girolamo, known as ‘Mommo,’ and was transformed to become larger and more efficient for the community while maintaining the family tradition.
To this day, the mill keeps its passion for agriculture and milling alive through its choice of quality grains from Sicily and traditions passed down from generation to generation.
Come with us to breathe in this family air and learn the art of Sicilian dough making and the various products that are created in this beautiful mill.
